Suppose that an accounting firm does a study to determine the time needed to complete one person's tax forms. It randomly surveys 175 people. The sample mean is 23.8 hours. There is a known population standard deviation of 6.2 hours. The population distribution is assumed to be normal.
Note that before the sample is drawn X is a normal random variable but after the sample is drawn x is an actual number. What distribution for X
should you use for this problem? (Give the distribution family of X , the mean of X , and the standard deviation of X ).
iii. There would be no change.

Suppose that an accounting firm does a study to determine the time needed to complete one person's tax forms. It randomly surveys 200 people. The sample mean is 23.4 hours. There is a known population standard deviation of 6.4 hours. The population distribution is assumed to be normal. NOTE: If you are using a Student's t-distribution, you may assume that the underlying population is normally distributed. (In general, you must first prove that assumption, though.) Construct a 90% confidence interval...

The U.S. Census Bureau conducts a study to determine the time needed to complete the short form. The Bureau surveys 200 people. The sample mean is 8.2 minutes, and the sample standard deviation is 2.2 minutes. To calculate a confidence interval for this data, would you use a value from the Z distribution or the t distribution? Write a sentence to explain your choice. (4 points) Calculate the 99% confidence interval for µ, the population mean time it takes to...

The time needed for college students to complete a certain paper and pencil maze follows a Normal distribution with a population mean of 80 seconds and a population standard deviation of 16 seconds. You wish to see if the mean time µ is changed by meditation, so you have a random sample of 12 college students meditate for 30 minutes and then complete the maze. It takes them an average of x = 73.3 seconds to complete the maze, with...
